Globecast and ARABSAT have extended their relationship for the distribution of the Global Arabic Bouquet (GAB), a grouping of premium Arabic channels from the Arab States Broadcasting Union (ASBU) that has been made available across the world since the establishment of this relationship in 2004.
Since the launch of their partnership, Globecast, ARABSAT and ASBU have expanded the Global Arabic Bouquets potential viewership and footprint, offering a single global coverage to ASBU members. Arabic language channels are now able to join the bouquet and reach viewers on all five continents free to air. Globecast ARABSAT and ASBUs partner for the worldwide distribution of the GAB is providing all the technical services required for end-to-end delivery.
Georges Baroud, CEO Globecast Middle East said, Its pleasing that this partnership is being extended for a further five years. This is a reflection of our continued technical leadership and also our customer service. We look forwards to another five years as we believe that in partnership with ARABSAT and ASBU we have created a strong, global platform for expats and newcomers to the Arabic world alike.
Khalid Balkheyour, ARABSAT President and CEO, added We need to ensure both quality of service and cost-effectiveness and partnering with Globecast achieves this. This has been proven across the years of our relationship. We are proud to bring a flavor of the Arabic world to the world.
